Amazing app, would give it 5 stars if they added a persistent notification that had play/pause, next track and previous track (like SoundCloud or Google music). A ui update also wouldn't go amiss ;) solid app overall though, very impressed

Impressive, a few snags I really like this app, and it was worth what I paid. As other users have said, there are a few bugs with it, such as the connection not being persistent, although it would drain battery if it were, maybe something for the devs to look at, and file management could be a bit smoother, like being able to add whole folders to a playlist instead of each episode. Other than that, it's made my hard drive video collection a lot more comfy to use, great job!

Been working great Not sure what happened. It worked for a long time and all of a sudden want connect any more. Tried a full reinstall, reverted to old version, connection is fine in a browser and in other apps but this one just in seeing anything to connect to any more. No clue. Hoping and update will fix it.

Unusable with VLC 2.2.0 Since VLC updated to version 2.2.0, VLC crashes whenever I use the Browse function in this app- which basically makes the app unusable for me now. Ugh. I'm sorry I bought it- I was just starting to enjoy it :(

Frequent lost connections I would have given 5 stars, if it would have persistent connection to my vlc player. It keeps telling me that there is no detectable vlc player running on my computer, but isn't so in reality. I have to turn off the WiFi of my computer and again connect it, to solve the problem. It's really annoying.

Can't go to another app or be minimized If the app ever goes in the background of tasks it can't be reopened without saying it can't connect and you have to exit vlc on PC, reopen vlc helper software to get it going again

Awesome Downloaded the free app first, but saw File Browsing not included. Bought the app and Im really impressed. User friendly, easy to understand after playing around for a while. Auto Config also a plus. Spent the whole weekend watching movies and using this app. Great! Only issue is you have to have an instance of vlc open on your laptop or pc before you can connect the remote.

Really good but has so bad points. Great idea and great way of browsing files on you pc/harddrive but it keeps telling me that there is no verson of vlc on my computer when im watching video. Could you fix please and i will change review. Cheers :)

Why won't it save? I paid for this version thinking I wouldn't have problems but it's still the same as the free version. It won't save my computer and the setup rarely let's me finish. Any solutions??

Not sure what is happening there - but it does support the Nexus 5 now. That's actually my main phone!
If you're still having problems, please email us through the settings tab and we'll figure out what is up.

Simply doesn't work Ok, so, I paid the full version. It simply doesn't connect Tried everything that the troubleshooting said. Actually, troubleshoot takes you to pages that don't exist. Like "click here to get network troubleshoot" and then you're redirected to a non-existent page. Like wtf. Can I get some actual help in here, or at least my money back?

The best VLC remote! I use it with Linux (Ubuntu and Mint on another machine), works great. Took me a while to get set up, tech support was quick and very helpful. Once it was configured (more to do with the computer than the app) it worked like a charm. Definitely recommend, I'd tried almost a dozen different remotes and this is by far the best and most stable.
